Karolina Bielawska, a Polish model, television presenter and Miss World 2021, who participated in the March of the Living on Tuesday, told Israel National News that it was the third time she had visited Auschwitz.
“Every single time I'm here I can't believe what happened, but what I know is that every survivor always says that they want the whole world to know and pass the history,” Bielawska said.
“For Polish people it's very important because it’s not only part of our land but this is a big part of our story,” she added.
“So I'm glad that so many people from all over the world come here every year to remember what happened to the people who survived and the people who passed away over here, and I just do hope that it will never happen ever again.”
The annual March of the Living took place on Tuesday from Auschwitz to Auschwitz-Birkenau, marking Israel’s national Holocaust Memorial Day. The March of the Living – taking place for the 35th year – was led by 40 Holocaust Survivors, alongside more than 13,000 participants from 25 countries around the world.
